KONG Extreme – Dog Toy (Medium, Black)

KONG Extreme – Medium, Black

At 5.7 × 5.7 × 8.9cm and 118g, the Medium Extreme is built for dogs KONG put in the 15–35 lb band — roughly 7–16kg, so spaniels, terriers, French bulldogs and the smaller crossbreeds. The black rubber is the same formula used right through the Extreme line; only the dimensions change.

A medium-sized dog with a serious jaw is exactly the case the Extreme grade exists for. If a red Classic in this size has come back chewed at the openings, this is the direct replacement, and it stuffs and freezes in precisely the same way.

Performance & Benefits

• Extreme black rubber, the hardest of KONG's four grades.
• 5.7 × 5.7 × 8.9cm — a chamber sized for a medium dog's meal, not a large dog's.
• Unpredictable bounce on hard ground for fetch that never repeats.
• Hollow through the middle for kibble, paste and frozen fillings.
• Weighs 118g, light enough to throw properly.
• 100% natural rubber, made in the USA.

Suitable For

• Dogs in KONG's Medium band, about 15–35 lb or 7–16kg.
• Medium dogs that chew hard enough to damage a Classic.
• Slow feeding, crate training and time alone.
• Kennels and rescue, where the same toy has to survive many different dogs.
• Too small for a dog of 30kg and over — go to the Large or X-Large Extreme, because an undersized KONG can be swallowed whole.

How to Use

• Load kibble through the wide opening and seal it with a smear of paste.
• Freeze a stuffed toy for four hours or more for the longest session.
• Make it easy to empty at first so the dog learns the toy pays out.
• Wash in hot soapy water or the dishwasher's top rack; dry before refilling.
• Let the dog chase the rebound rather than throwing it directly at them.

Care & Caution
